Today you will leave Johannesburg early for Maun where you will board a flight into the Xakanaxa area of the Moremi Game Reserve, where you spend 2 nights in a bush camp on the banks of the Khwai River. This area is considered to be one of the most beautiful parts of Africa and this is where the sands of the Kalahari Desert meet the waters of the Okavango.
After you have settled in to your safari accommodation and had time to refresh, you can enjoy afternoon tea and the sunset game viewing activity. Later, you can sit down to a delicious dinner around the camp fire and savour your first night in the wilderness.
After an early morning call and refreshments, you will set off on a game viewing activity. Your bush guide will explain the intricacies of this unique region and more about the African animals that live here. There is a strong population of wildlife in the area including grazers and predators allowing for the opportunity of seeing some dramatic interactions.
You will return to the safari camp for brunch after which you can decide on a siesta or to do some fresh-water fishing. You could choose an afternoon activity which you have not yet done so that you get an overall view of the Okavango. A sundowner drink in the bush, surrounded by the sounds of Africa, is truly one of the most amazing experiences.
This if the final day of your Classic Moremi Wildlife Encounter Safari. This morning you will have the opportunity for a last game drive and breakfast in the Okavango.
You will be transferred to the airstrip for your flight back to Maun and the onward connection to Johannesburg O.R. Tambo International Airport.
